The residents of West Jordan, Utah, helped little Ethan Van Leuven and his family get in the holiday spirit in October after doctors said the boy, who has been battling acute lymphoblastic leukemia, was not responding to treatment. The festivities included trick-or-treating, a parade to mark Ethan's fifth birthday a month early and a visit from Santa.

Neighbors of a 4-year-old Utah boy given days to weeks to live joined together to bring holiday cheer to the family a little early.
